Final Fantasy X remake coming to Vita and PS3

Final Fantasy X--one of my personal "must play" titles for the PS2--is coming to the PlayStation Vita and PlayStation 3. Details on what the "remake" will include are scarce; however, we assume it's simply an HD port of the classic title.

Final Fantasy X first launched on the PlayStation 2 in North America on December 20, 2001. It achieved critical acclaim, scoring a Metacritic average of 92.

Though Sony first showed off the power of the PlayStation 3 with a short tech demo based on the introduction of Final Fantasy VII, Square Enix has yet to succumb to fan outcry and confirm a remake of the classic title is in the works. They have, however, announced three hundred games in the Final Fantasy XIII universe... give or take.

FFX is junk, honestly. I played through it again recently, and it's ludicrously linear, even by JRPG standards. The voice acting is terrible, and the graphics didn't age well in many of the areas (some still look gorgeous). I will never understand why it has such a big following.

If it has all the extra content that was in the European and Japanese extended releases, then sure. They added a fair amount of stuff, if I recall, including some ultra-hard bosses, that never hit American shores. I'd love to play through FFX again.

I hope they do away with that fucking chocobo race and the lightning mini games. Fuck both of them. I could get the chocobo one - after like 7000 tries - but I could never dodge the lighting 255 times or what ever absurd number it was.

Funny enough, Ninty does this with the 3DS (remakes remakes remakes!) and i dont give a damn (even tho StarFox 64 is one of my all time favorite games) mostly because i wont buy a system on remakes alone. Vita is going to have a few solid originals (uncharted anyone?) AND a game in my top 5 of all time.
